Diwali Celebration

Posted date: October 30, 2017

Our second grade Panthers kicked off their social studies unit on culture by learning about Diwali from one of our 2nd grade parents. Diwali is called the “Festival of Lights” and is celebrated throughout Indian culture. The festival gets its name from the row of clay lamps that Indians light outside their homes to symbolize the inner light that protects from spiritual darkness. We thank Mrs. Khandhar for coming to in to share this special holiday with us.
